As a fan and a previous player during the early glory days of Mono Black Control, I am very happy to know that the deck archetype has shown its potential in Dominaria Standard in the recent Grand Prix in Birmingham, England. The deck was piloted by Mario Rodenas Lopez from Spain and he went 8-0 on Day 1 of the event. He stumbled on the second day though it was fun watching his matches on Twitch. Here below is his version of Mono Black Control for Dominaria Standard:
